Clear the amber blinking i-stop light: http://www.************.co.uk/index.php?topic=13442.0 I had an i-stop amber flashing light on my Mazda 3 BL, which on the owner's manual suggested I took it to the dealer for inspection. After being charged 53 by the Mazda dealer (battery not covered by...

Yep, forgot that you americans have different understanding of distance:)) Here the long runs will be over 2 hours. The country i live is crossed from one end to the other in 4 hours :))) Anyway still not decided on MS3, the speed cameras are getting more and more so not sure i will be able to...

Well, no dust and less heating = better grip?

of what i have read the grip is better in the slotted disks?

I would also do this once my brake pads and disks needs replacement (currently at 33k km) I mean going for at least slotted, as 100 $ more are worth the improved braking, i don't drive that aggressively, but to stop even once with 2 or 3 meters less might be life-saving

Guys, apologies if i am not using the correct terminology basically i am having the early mazda 3 sedan model, that has a black bumper protector with a single exhaust "hole" Like this one And i would like to go to a dual exhaust one Will MS3 rear one with black bumper protector fit on the...

Just a follow-up , after replacing both batteries the issue seems to have been resolved. May be the early 3s had a different batteries that were not that suitable

ah one other thing, for 11-2k euro i can get 07-08 focus ST, but mazda (MPS here)will come a bit cheaper from the same year. I prefer the hatch from the previous generation. Still the speed 3 from 06-08 is not much different from the look of the normal 3. While the orange focus is quite...

Is it true that on speed 3 you need kind of to stay on top of the car, while on the ST it is a bit more easy to handle? but not that responsive? to me it sounds like speed3 might be more fun but needs to be controlled better. While i might prefer the ST to handle with some ease

Not sure if it is the right place to post this, so if not -please move it I currently own 151 HP Mazda 3 but in the next year i might be selling it as wife has a Mazda 2 for city ride, and i am considering getting a car for fun and long rides The aim is not drag racing! I am kind of...

Guys, i am thinking to get one of the last of the old model 2.5i 170 HP GTAs hoping to get it for like 23k euro. My question is is there an option to get the old style fog-lights - the rectangular ones, not the new circle-shaped? Also is the 2.0 151 HP mazda 3 performance at the same level as...

getting pissed with it already, new battery same problem, i wish i could find a way to clear the error message by myself, there should be a way - like disconnecting the main battery or the i-stop battery or whatever. Anyone can help with the above?

thank you , so if i can not sort it out with the local dealership i am gonna buy a battery with bigger capacity like 60 Ah at least or even more like 72-75

I guess i didn't explain myself clear enough CX-5 indeed uses one, but my mazda 3 from end of 2009 uses 2 batteries. 110 Ah is indeed huge (is this for diesel version?) , do you happen to know if this is the Q85 type or some other. I am trying to understand if MAzda is recommending capacity...

I see lot of posts over here and other forums that i-stop problems in CX-5 are often fixed by replacing the battery with a Q85 type. Can someone explain what's the original battery's Ah and what's the one of the Q85 type? is it bigger in capacity? I am trying to solve my problem for mazda 3...

Some update - Dealership tested the battery and they say after two i-stop cycles the main battery is drained more than expected, so they checked the error in the mazda portal and they say main battery needs replacement Guess i will ask in the CX-5 forum as i read lot of people with the same...

I apologize if i happen to post in the wrong forum, I just wanted to share my problem and ask for possible workaround as my local dealer has pissed me off I have a 2009 Mazda 3, which i don't drive much like 7k kilometers per year. I don't use it in the city , so it stays locked in my garage...
